This article describes and analyzes the results of a research on the network of scientific production in Public Administration in Brazil from 2000 to 2010. Data were collected from the main national events and periodicals that supported the field of knowledge in the 2000s. As a result, the amaount of scientific production and the number of researchers, the pattern of collaboration and the profile categorization of the authors, the identification of the most prolific, as well as the illustration of the research network and property measures were verified. These indexes allowed this paper to re-discuss some of the historical problems of the field, already carried out by other authors, and to reveal some characteristics of this academic community in the present, such as: the persistence of the lack of identity and insufficient delimitation of the field of knowledge, the lack of a thematic definition in the scientific production and the existence of a very reduced number of authors that address the theme.Keywords: Public Administration, Scientific Production, Academic Community, Brazil.
